OT: POTD: A wilted Amaryllis bloom with a surprise to me

14 years ago

Good morning...and I mean MORNING lol

My time...2:30 am and I just finished my last load of laundry. So if it freezes...I tried everything to prevent the pipes from bursting.

Crossing my fingers ...for ALL of us.

Well I love looking at the Amaryllis blooms. La Paz had 2 stalks blooming and is on it's 3rd one now. So I walk by...glance at it and thought this ...no I mean ...yesterday morning lol...wow...the spend blooms are sweating.

So I go touch it and what do you know...it was as sticky as sap

have a good day.

Karyn...in case I sleep right through till monday...I wish you a safe trip ....lots warmer weather and FUN!!

You are up late and me earlier after a late night. LOL
Up until 2;00am. I hate nights like this.

You sure can find beauty an just about anything.
You have an eye for taking pictures.

Hope everyone stays safe and warm on this another cold morning.
Karyn hope you have a safe trip. Fla is cold also.
Hope you go way down south. LOL

Good morning all. Lucy, I am speechless (not really, LOL)! That picture with the drop is truly beautiful!! You should blow it up, frame and hang as a picture in your home, and you should submit it somewhere. I wish I could take good pictures, and as a result of you being such a natural at it, next time I get the college catalog, I am going to sign up to learn how to use my camera :-)

Beautiful Amaryllis, mine got too tall this year also. Brrrrrrrrrr is right! Here in San Antonio we are expecting the coldest weather in 40 years. We might not get above freezing on Friday! Many of the plants I brought in a few weeks ago are sprouting new leaves. The first hard freeze snuck up on us and I accidentally left the Duranta out and thought it was dead, but now it's sprouting new leaves. Even one small Brug cutting that got left out is now sprouting from the bottom even though the top is shriveled. We'll be moving the Christmas lights over to the plants that are too big to bring in.

Morning Lucy Hope you have a safe and fun trip! Enjoy those Grands. Bring me back a rock! LOL (That's what I tell everyone going on a Vacation) You'd be surprised how many rocks I get doing that. LOL I know no rocks in Fl. But I do have 2 form Alaska, 1 from Italy and The latest from the Grand Canon area. I love to add them to my garden. Anyway have a great time. Big Hugs Dorothy

Amarillis---- I used to get a potted blooming one every Christmas from somebody, for several years. I guess that person finally realized that I wasn't doing anything with them, after they finished blooming. That's when I had other interests, - not gardening. What I would give today, to have them all back! They were beautiful! On second thought, -- yet some more pots on the patio?? I don't think so!! Ingrid

Good Morning everyone.
Lucy, you are such a great photographer! You always find these beautiful pics that most people just past by. You definitely have "the eye" for great pics :)

well thank you my friends.

I see it differently about sharing my pictures.

To me it is the same thing when you do something out of love for somebody...and do not want anything for it in return...and you get *paid*. It takes that feeling of having done something from your heart...away.

Same with the pictures. I find them JUST FOR YOU ALL.

I change that...they loose their special feeling about them.

Do you know what I mean?

So...as long as there are POTD>.....they are truly just for you all
